Ski holidays Thale - dreamy winter paradise in the Harz!

Thale

The picturesque, fairytale town of Thale is the largest town in the romantic Bode Valley in the north-east of the Harz Mountains. Due to its spectacular towering steep rock faces, the valley is also known as the "Grand Canyon of the Harz Mountains" and as the most impressive rock valley north of the Alps. This wildly romantic landscape, including the sometimes calmly flowing and sometimes wildly roaring Bode River, is easily accessible from Thale. The idyllic village and the beautiful surroundings in the Harz Mountains offer a range of activities for your holiday entertainment. The area around Thale has a lot to offer, especially when it comes to winter sports, whether it's tobogganing, skiing, cross-country skiing or snowshoeing. The largest ski resort, "Wurmberg - Braunlage", is about 45 minutes away.

Even away from the slopes, you will find a varied leisure programme. Relax in the "Bodetal Therme Thale", which offers indoor swimming pools, saunas, massages and catering services. The most important ski and local history museum in the Harz Mountains and the hut museum are also worth a visit. Enjoy the fresh, healthy air in the wonderful Harz Mountains and have a varied holiday!

Harz

The Harz is the most Northern winter sport area in Germany and offers a diverse wildlife on a 2,200 km² big expanse. As soon as the first snow falls, winter sports fans find their way into this magnificent area, which is made possible by the Brocken (1,141 m), the highest mountain in Northern Germany. Especially in the villages around the National Park Harz, which was founded transnationally in 1995, attractive Alpine skiing, as well as cross-country skiing areas have developed. Cross-country tracks and pistes with varying degrees of difficulty, as well as toboggan runs and nature ice areas arrange for diverse recreational fun for the whole family. The dreamlike winter landscape can also be explored by way of one of the versatile winter hiking trails. Furthermore, numerous rustic restaurants invite you to enjoy a cosy evening with local specialities or international cuisine.
